Apparently Brad doesn't

Congratulations frenetic, or as most of us know you, Brad Sucks on yesterday's appearance on New Music Canada Track of the Day! When you get rich and famous, remember - we recognized your brilliance first.

Hmmm... I used the permalink right to the blog entry about Brad Sucks, but it didn't work. You'll just have to scroll down until you see his shining face.

Is it wrong that seeing Metatalk in my referral logs made my heart skip more than being New Music Canada Track of the Day? I thought I was in trouble.

My name is Brad and I'm gonna buy the album.
Congrats, frenetic!

I've always thought that Dirtbag could easily be a hit single in the US.

Awesome, and well fucking deserved.

Right on, frenetic! I've dropped by your site from time to time to check out your sounds. Congratulations!

I discovered Brad Sucks on MeFi Music and have been a big fan ever since. Congrats, frenetic.

Success! I listen to his tracks approximately once every two days since he's in my "random ultimate favourites" playlist. Does this make me incredibly sad or slightly mefi geek chic?

I suspect the two mean the same, alas.

I discovered Brad Sucks independent of MeFi. I AM... something.

Anyway, Brad Sucks doesn't.

Another one who came to the light through MeFi Music. Brad Sucks totally doesn't.

Hi I'm on metatalk and I could call out a plate of beans.

Brad, I just went back through the tunes you've posted to Music, and I love 'em all. I promise to order a CD as soon as the bank says it's okay.

Naw, sorry frenetic, but the nicest thread ever was when Ynoxas gave me and my music a callout in the blue. This is the 2nd nicest. ;-)

Brad, I ordered your music from some online site I can't remember the name of, where you name your price, as it were. And I loved it.

A while later, after finding out you'd written/recorded at least a few of those songs as Songfights (where I peddle my unseemly wares on occasion) I kicked you a quick payment in appreciation for the quality of your work, and said "Don't send me a CD, I already have the music." And you sent me a CD anyway.

Anyhoo, long story short: your stuff still gets play on my iPod, and if I had 1/10th the songwriting chops you have, people would know who the hell I was. Well done.

I found out about you through a trailer mashup of Toy Story and Requiem for a dream, I think through Waxy or the blue. That was probably two years ago, and I was pleased and surprised that you were on Metafilter, not to mention by everything you've released since then. I gave my mom your CD for Christmas.
